and artillery fire, the tremolo of the machine-guns
and the melody of anguish - and thus be delivered from them. When
the book was finished Raymond Woog, who had come to Abbeville to
paint General Asset's portrait, read my manuscript:
`It must be published,' he said.
Such was also the opinion of Captain de Mun.
`But I don't know any publisher,' I objected.
One of my friends replied that nothing was simpler, and undertook
to
deliver my manuscript to a young publisher of whom he spoke very
highly - Bernard Grasset.
Soon a reply came: Grasset liked the book and was ready to publish
it. Since I was an officer on active service I had to have authorization
from the Mission. The latter was very reluctant. Commandant de
Casteja, who was our chief of personnel, summoned me to Montreuil:
`I find your little book very entertaining,' he said. `But you
can't publish it under your own name! ... The English officers
with whom you are living or have lived might recognize themselves
and be offended. If there is the slightest complaint it will be
this unhappy Mission that will be blamed ... No, we give you our
moral authorization, but you must use a pseudonym.'
This disappointed me, because as a young and unknown author almost
the only readers I could count on were my friends in Normandy and
my old comrades in the Lycee and the Regiment, who would not be
able to recognize me under a pseudonym. Finally I resigned myself
and selected the first name Andre, in memory of my cousin who had
been killed in action, and Maurois, the name of a village near
Cambrai, because I liked its sad sonority ... Andre Maurois ...
How strange and new those syllables sounded to me then!
Meanwhile Grasset was printing Les Silences. He sent me the first
proofs. They arrived at the time when the Germans were advancing
on Amiens in March 1918. For several days I believed the war was
lost. Long streams of refugees pushing wheelbarrows full of furniture,
children's toys and potatoes, came through Abbeville. To establish
and provision +a new front we worked day and night. The bombings
were redoubled. Thousands of trucks, rushing up French troops to
seal the breach, maintained an uninterrupted rumble beneath our
windows. I found reassurance in the calm of General Asser:
